Review on 🔌 Sperry Instruments GFI6302 GFCI Outlet Tester, Standard 120V AC Receptacle, 7 Visual Indication & Wiring Legend, for Home & Professional Use, Yellow & Black by Shawn Torres

I really like this device, now that I understand it I know what to expect from it. I deducted a star for the lack of on-board explanations of strange displays (displays that are not described). This is how I encountered reviews of luminous flux from one lamp to another that gave somewhat confusing readings. Here not only light penetrates through the plastic, the light bulbs burn there, but very weakly. Я переделал несколько розеток и в процессе узнал кое-что об этом устройстве: - Оно очень красиво сделано, приятно - Оно не может диагностировать каждую проблему - Таблица не описывает все возможные признаки, которые вы можете увидеть - Оно позволяет вам знать в целом, если Something wrong. What I mean is that it shows you a list of all possible lighting configurations on the device. However, two situations are noticeably absent: the light is fully on, the light is partially on. I encountered situations when all indicators are lit, but this situation is not shown on the chart. I've also seen variations in the light, but only slightly. I think some people thought this was because one bright light flows into the next light giving the appearance that it might be on, but it's actually an indication of a different issue. In any case, if you don't have two solid orange lights, something is wrong. You'd think they mentioned it in the manual. nope Nothing. This is really unacceptable for a device designed for electrical work. In general, this device reliably shows two things: everything is OK or something is wrong. If you see anything other than two solid orange lights, something is wrong to some degree. Even if I get a solid light reading, I double check everything with a multimeter. You can get decent ones for around $25 and they'll tell you exactly what's going on with the outlet. Why not just get a multimeter? This is certainly an option, but I prefer a small tester to fully test everything, noting the failed sockets, and then going back and testing the failed ones with a multimeter to see exactly what's going on. Bonus round: Testing an outlet with a multimeter is easy: set it to measure voltage and: red probe to output small (hot) slot, black probe to large (neutral) slot. should be 120 (approx) volts, then red to small slot, black to ground (lower output), should also be 120 volts. Then one probe to large slot, the other to ground, there should be zero or near zero readings.
